I skied with Chalky for the second time this year, in Les Arcs, and he really is an inspiring teacher with a gift for explaining things. The real thing for me is that he completely understands the dynamics of skiing and how to put them across. From a "stuck intermediate" he has rebuilt my skiing completely on sound foundations so...

Others have said that Chalky White is one of the world’s best ski instructors. After my recent experience, those comments are accurate. I am now a confident, efficient skier thanks to Chalky White. I’ve discovered skills within me that can ski almost any place or resort worldwide on his, ‘Ski the World with Chalky White’ program.
Before meeting Chalky I’d...

After more than 30 years of skiing, I spent a few days with Chalky White on the mountain and was amazed at how much better skier I became. Ever since, his book 'The 7 secrets of Skiing' is a mandatory reading for all my skier friends. Besides being a fabulous (and fabled) instructor, Chalky is also a true gentleman, always...

Others have already said that Chalky is one of the best ski instructors in the world. After only 3 lessons in difficult conditions last year where I saw dramatic improvements in my confidence and ability, I have to agree 100%. I went from being a good groomer skier to being able to do powder, ice and steep terrain with control!...

This is a great book! Mr. White has done an excellent job of combining the physical and mental aspects of skiing. Whether you are a beginner, intermediate, or expert skier, this book will help you improve.

If you are looking to improve your skiing more than you ever thought possible, take a lesson with Chalky White! I read his book, The Seven Secrets of Skiing and instantly improved my skiing following some of his teachings. Then, I was lucky enough to be able to take a lesson with Chalky. Wow, did I learn a lot! Chalky...

Having visited beautiful ski resorts while traveling throughout the world for business, I seized the opportunity whenever possible to learn to ski. While the opportunities existed, as a novice, it was truly too long between lessons on the slopes; what I learned at the hands of the talented instructors was quickly lost and my level of ability plateaued. That was...

Chalky is an instrucor's instructor, actually we view him as more of a ski coach and trainer than just a ski teacher. We have skied with Chalky for about 10 years now. Though I am now 54 and have been skiing since I was 3 I find that Chalky's methods and coaching hve changed me into a more competant and...

Chalky is a longtime ski instructor at Beaver Creek. He is Australian and has a delightful sense of humor and a wonderful personality. If you're lucky, he might even break out into song for you! He is very knowledgeable about skiing and has written articles on the subject. Highly recommend him for an instructor on your trip out here.

Chalky here, the subject of this review. First, Thank you Maxine. Just one small error; I am in fact a Brit that's now also a U.S. Citizen and not an Aussie. Hate to say it but the Aussies got their accent from us Brits! Skiing is believing and having as much fun as possible. It's snowing somewhere.
